Jam Sessions’ track listing reveiled
Ubisoft recently unveiled the track listing for their upcoming DS rythm game, Jam Sessions. As we get bombarded with AAA titles this fall, keep this one on your radar. Me thinks it could be a blast… Complete track listing: Amy Winehouse ”“ “You know I’m no good” Avril Lavigne ”“ “I’m With You” Beck ”“ “Jackass” Blind Melon ”“ “No rain” Bob Marley ”“ &#...
Nintendo: We’re ignoring someone? Really?
IGN just blew the doors off of the airlock and bestowed a 9.5 Incredible rating on Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. A four page review accompanies said rating. I fully expect every other “media outlets” out there to do the same in the coming days and weeks. But something has been tickling the back of my mind today, and I can’t quite place it. Something about Nintendo ignoring a certa...
Fresh news: Nintendo Power mints
Infendo world traveler and reader Ted L. was out and about this weekend and found these tasty Nintendo Power mints. Like any good collector, Ted doesn’t plan on breaking the seal. “I haven’t/am not going to open them so I don’t know how they taste (they smell good though!),” he said. I know Ted. Nintendo always smells good.

Nintendo Power calls Metroid 3 “Incorruptible”
From the 10/10 review… Since its introduction, gamers have seen great potential in the Wii remote as a natural controller for first-person action games. But while several titles have pulled off the method adequately, Corruption is the first that doesn’t leave any room for you to consider whether it would be better with a traditional controller…. the system works impeccably…...
Nintendo’s Miyamoto on game delays
For as much as I despise delays (especially when they are for strategic reasons), this wise and famous quote by Shiggy really puts things into perspective. A delayed game is eventually good; a bad game is bad forever. Oh, and you’re a jaded Som’B if you don’t like Miyamoto…
Cranium Kabookii – board game for Wii
I ask for something and it only takes Ubisoft 4 months (almost to the day!) to comply. I’d love to see how much they pay their Project Managers. Anyway, board game fans will be happy to see a Wii-ified version of Cranium is coming out this December. A report on Joystiq tells us that Cranium Kabookii will feature Wii-controlled versions of Cranium’s usual word puzzles, trivia, and perfo...
Surviving the Wii game drought
Those familiar with Nintendo are also familiar with the double-edged sword of the Nintendo Seal of Approval. Sure, Nintendo’s first-party publications are usually incredible in quality, but that quality comes at a price: time. Nintendo’s big games are usually spaced incredibly far apart with little to keep us occupied in the interim. I know I’ve personally been dealing with Ninte...
Crowd sourcing on display in new Metroid commercial
I love when large groups of people watch me play games. It’s like on The Last Starfighter when the entire trailer park community cheers on Alex (1:03 in) when breaking the highest Starfighter score.
